Reopen Maintenance Cycle

We have a maintenance cycle that we have been using for urgent corrections in one of our landscapes that someone has set to 'withdrawn' status in error. As a result, all corrections that are open are now displaying the error 'An action was terminated due to an exceptional situation.' I tried creating a new maintenance cycle in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN, linked to the same landscape but this has not helped. Is there a program/workaround/trick that can be used to simply open the original maintenance cycle again?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions you may have.

Hai Paul,
1.As of the Urgent correction,once it is set to withdrawn status,the ssystem status will become completed and sowe cannot modify the urgent corrcetion again.
2.If the Maintenance cycle associated with this urgent correction is open or in active state you can created a followup Urgent correction for the Change request from which the UC(withdrawn)was created and go ahead with your work.
3.So what is the status of your miantenace cycle when you view in /n/tmwflow/maintinst.If the maintenance cycle is locked,try to unloack it and open the task list to check if it is opening with out any error.If it opens without any error you can go ahead with the changes as discribed in point 2.
Please check your maintenanced cycle in /n/tmwflow/maintinst or solar_project_admin go to system landscape,change management tab and give refresh.Once we get the status of maintenace cycle we can narrow down to the issue.

Avinash.

Removing a corection from a maintenance cycle

Good Day;
I am trying to figure out how to remove a "correction" from a maintenance cycle. There is a transport assigned to the correction.
We are currently on support stack 17
Thanks all
Regards
Don Newton

Thanks Sanjai;
This part works well except that that any transports have remained in the maintenance cycle.
Not a big problem as I can use SE10 to remove the transport from the maintenance cycle as long as it is in u201Cmodifiableu201D status.
Thanks again Sanjai

IW21 Retrieving the maintenance cycle text while creation of work order

Hi Experts,
My requirement is to display the maintenance cycle text on the print preview while creating a work order via transaction IW21.
Since the print preview is clicked before saving the work order, the data from the work order has not been updated in the database tables (AFVC, PLWP).
Hence, the maintenance cycle text will have to be accessed through a runtime structure.
The text has to be fetched in a subroutine program which is called from the SAPscript.
I tried accessing the global data while debugging. However, the maintenance cycle text does not seem to be present.
Please help.
Regards,
Anusha

It is inappropriate to produce a SAPScript prior to save, IMHO. What prevents the user from changing something after the print preview was done in this case?
At any rate, you'll find that some data values, like document numbers, etc., are not set until the user has saved the document. The document needs to be saved, and SAPScript generated at the end of that process.

Hi Rishav,
We had resolve the issue as now we are able to close the cycle successfully,
But new CTS project is not being generated, Any idea, should we need to check this with SAP again.

How to include JAVA work in a maintenance cycle

Good Day;
Would anyone know where I can find documentation on how to include JAVA changes in a Solution Manager / ChaRM maintenance cycle?
I understand that a transport can be created for JAVA work.
Thanks All
Regards
Don Newton

You will first need CTS+ configured to create the java transport. Check this out for portal..
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90d3b550-b6fb-2910-0fa5-ece5d61fb9c3
Once that is configured and assuming you have Charm configured, I believe it's as easy as adding the system to your project.

Multiple system maintenance cycles are not shown in pop up for selection

Hi,
In change manager, when we create a change document from a change request, we dont get a pop up for selection of maintenance cycles with multiple systems in it.
The change document is getting created by taking the only available maintenance cycle with only that system.
Is there any configuration for this?
Regards,
Dipti Sawarkar.

Hi Christian,
Thanks for your reply.
I know the pop up will come only when there is more than one maintenance cycles for that production system.
I have done configuration for Normal correction.( SDMJ) and customized it (ZDMJ).
When I try to create a CD* from CR* for a particular production system ( CCP) , it just takes up a maintenance cycle for CCP system and doesnt show up any pop for selection of maint cycles whereas I have created 5 maintenance cycles for this system CCP.
The other 4 maintenance cycles have multiple landscapes (CCP and EAP )in it whereas this one (which gets selected by default) just has CCP landscape in it.
The strange part is that when I try to create a stand alone CD ( without CR ) , it will give that pop up showing all 5 maint cycles. But this is not happening when I create a CD from a CR.
I have never done/ seen configuration for the pop up of selecting maint cycles in ChaRM.
Looking forward to ur help,
( *CD - Change Document and * CR - Change Request)

Dipti Sawarkar.

Table for maintenance plan and maintenance cycle and Unit

Hello,
I need to know the table where the values are stored for maintenance plan, maintenance cycle and Unit.
I know that we can get the maintenance cycle and unit from MMPT table.
Question 1
If the maintenance plan has only a single cycle then the data is stored in above table MMPT, but if a maintenance plan has mutiple cycles like 1 maintenance plan has maintenance cycle as 364 Days and 1092 days then the data is not stored in MMPt table.
Question 2
Requirement is I need to develop a report where in I need maintenance order, maintenance plan and the relevant maintenance cycle and unit. Supose an maintenance order is created for the above maintenance plan which has 2 maintenance cycle how can I identify for which maintenance cycle the order is created.

Narendra

Inconsistency with maintenance cycle and task list phases in ChaRM

Hi Experts,
I'm deploying ChaRM with SolMan 4.0 SP09.
I was testing a scenario where there are more than one maintenance project open for same landscape (different logical components but values are the same). I have been using maintenance cycle document (in crmd_order) to control phase changes both in task list and in maintenance cycle.
I received an error message stating that the system has reset the status of the maintenance cycle and the end result was that task list phase is one step ahead of the maintenance cycle. This of course causes the situation where certain actions are no longer possible (maintenance cycle in Dev with release but task list already in test => release and import are not possible and reseting phase with task list is prevented by ChaRM).
My question is how do I restore the inconsistency. I have looked for notes (but of course this is not a notes issue) and the internet for solution.
I am very greatful for any hints you may give me!
Kind regards,
Auli

Thank you!
Exactly what I'm trying to do. I'll give it a go and get back to you asap.

No maintenance cycle is open for the current system

Hello!
I have problems to use CharM functionality due to following error:
<b>No maintenance cycle is open for the current system</b>
The error arises when I try to set a urgent correction in status "In Development" I get the following error, menwhile I have an valid maintenance cycle active.
I use CharM functionality for the solution consisting of an single system with two clients:
SRM:000 (as DEV-system) (system role: source system)
SRM:100 (as PRD-system) (system role: target system)
- No maintenance cycle is open for the current system (meanwhile I have a valid maintenance cycle created and activated).
Futhermore I get the additional warning:
IBase component is not a productive system in system lanscape
Can some help me with this issue?
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Hello Kriti,
thank you very much for your response.
Unfortunately I also thought about it.
Basically my CharM procedure looks as follows.
I send the message from productive client (I have only one system with client 000 and 100) to Service Desk in SOLMAN.
There I can see the IBase of the productive client.
Then I create a urgent correction by assigning IBase to this IBase of productive client. It is also possible to change the IBase in change mode, so I have tried all the possible values of IBase and get the same error.
My problem also is that I have multiple values of IBase assigmenets, it means one system has multiple assigments to IBase components.
I do not know how to delete/cut these settings....
Thank you for your further help!
regards
Thom

Need to close maintenance cycles to apply EhP1?

Hello,
We are planning to install EhP1 for SolMan, we are currently running SP17. I've looked through the install guide, but I am still not sure if we need to close all existing Maintenance Cycles and corrections before the upgrade, or if the existing cycles will not be affected.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Michele

We are using ChaRM in our SolMan production system to manage changes to our other SAP systems, so we have numerous maintenance cycles open and ZDCR corrections being created and worked on.
When EhP1 for Solman is installed in production, will it mess up any of these maintenance cycles or ZDCR corrections? Or will these continue to work? We don't want to stop our support for our other SAP systems for this enhancement pack.
Thanks,
Michele
P.S. - It's really hard to talk about SDCR/ZDCR corrections when their name is banned from the forums.

Solution Manager - Import buffer and duplicate imports in maintenance cycle

Hello,
I am trying to understand how Normal and Urgent Correction work in a maintenance cycles.
I am using SOLMAN 4.0 and I would like to know how the import buffers are managed.
When I have completed a maintenance cycle and all my transport request have been imported in the production system, I want to switch the status of the maintenance cycle back to development in order to complete my previous open normal corrections. I have read in many places that if I act in this way, not only my new corrections but all the old correction will be imported in the quality and production systems because the import buffers do not get empty.
For example, If I decide to have 10 normal corrections but eventually only 9 corrections are imported in quality and production systems, when I switch back to development and I complete the 10th correction, this correction will be imported together with the other 9 corrections or this will be imported alone since the other nine correction have been imported before?
How it works?
I appreciate suggestions.
Thanks
Antonello

Hi Gert-Jan,
We do the same and we don't face this issue. There is thus a solution.
I never had this case, this might be a parameter in your QAS refresh procedure.
1/ If you empty your production import buffer (meaning you import it all to production) before tacking the production copy you will never have this issue.
2/ If you have some transportd left in the import buffer of production , you have this issue ? I guess this is our case
I will try to reformulate the case.
The refresh of QAS is causing the lost of some customizing that were not yet imported in production but was imported in QAS prior to the refresh of QAS.
When you reimport the "overwritten" transports in QAS after the refresh, this transport is removed from the QAS import buffer and going too the import buffer of production.
A/The same transport is now twice in the import buffer of production ? we don't have this in our landscape (I even think this was not possible)
B/Or in between this transport has been imported in production and thus you are right it falls in the import buffer of production again with another sequence.
Thank you to confirm your case A or B ?.

Charm implementation: No maintenance cycle is open for the current system

Gurus,
I'm in implementation project to use charm.
I've created SDCR using charm_create, and choose transaction type subject "Development (implementation)"
After approving the change request, so that the status become "Approved", I re-open the request to set into "in development", but there's error:
"No maintenance cycle is open for the current system"
I've checked notes and search the forum but not relevant to my subject.
Please help.
Regards,

Hi Cesar,
I'm facing this issue now. I have followed Dolores blog
- The IBase is wrong: The IBase/component must represent the production system in the project landscape. RP1 is my production
- Lack of authorizations: Assign role "SAP_SOCM_ADMIN" or "SAP_CM_ADMINISTRATOR_COMP" (or equivalent) to the user who would like to approve the change request. I have updated all roles and given the users SAP_ALL
- Project is locked in table /TMWFLOW/PROJMAP: If an error is detected during the processing, then the project might be locked in this table. The customer can unlock it by pressing the refresh button under tab "System Landscape" -> "Change Requests". If there are other error messages shown during the refresh process, the customer must fix those errors beforehand. Refreshed it many times without errors
I'm on the latest level of Solman 7.1 SP8, I have implemented all the new notes as well.
I have attached a screenshot
To me it seems like a bug, but haven't found anything on marketplace. Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers
Jimmy

Problem with differetn phases for one maintenance cycle

Dear Solman Gurus.
It has happened several times, tha while working with maintenance cycle from 2 different places - from activity Maintenance cycle and form Task list, that system shows different phases. For example in task list is phase TEST in activity Maintenance cycle is phase Development wit release. And you are not able to correct it. Or at least we do not know how to do it. So we can only close the whole maitenance and start all over again.
Please help us how to prevent this situation or how to correct it.
Regards,
Petr

Hi Petr,
You should have a look to SAP Note 933705 that helps with your problem.
Best regards,
Stéphane.
